What on earth does our title mean? This week on Eavesdroppin’, we start off by talking about TV shows Michelle is obsessed with before Geordie moves on to the ser-i-ous topic of needle spiking. *DISCLAIMER: We are not victim blaming in any way, merely investigating thoughts and theories… Right, now that’s clear… What is needle spiking? Why has it become a new date-rape phenomena in the UK? Are women being pricked and injected, or is it something else? Who is The London Monster? What is Piquerism? And is unauthorized hair cutting assault? Is the phenomena actually needle spiking or drink spiking? Is it a real thing or scare mongering? Listen in to make your own mind up…

Then the pair move on to the issue of privacy… Well Michelle gets slightly ranty about it and is kind of shocked that no one seems to care about digital privacy anymore… Are we being listened to by our phones? Should we care? Would we trade convenience for privacy? And is it OK that the UK government creates a referendum to exit the EU but doesn’t ask us if we consent to having all of our online activity tracked and stored? What about CCTV – is surveillance without consent OK? Is having our privacy and freedoms taken away an issue? Or is it just a byproduct of the digital age that we just need to accept? Listen in to find out!

We hope you enjoy the episode and remember, wherever you are, whatever you do, just keep Eavesdroppin’!

The post 6: PRICKS & PRIVACY: needle spiking, piquerism, are our phones listening to us & more appeared first on Eavesdroppin' Podcast.

Well hello, Eavesdroppers! This week’s episode goes from boring to bizarre as we look at two weird and whacky religious sects (just don’t call them cults, like Michelle does the whole way through…).

First up? In an effort to find a lighthearted cult where not everyone dies at the end, Michelle talks about The Bruderhof! In this episode she talks about… What they are… Who they are… How they got started… How they’re kind of boring… yawn. Don’t get us wrong, it IS interesting – in the way the Amish are interesting – and all in all they’re a neat little sect where, so far, no body dies. But hang one cotton-pickin’ minute because Geordie has a sect for you that will knock your little silver alien socks off. Yes, she’s scraped the surface of what it is to be RAËLIAN!!! (Almost sounds like alien, right?!)

So… What is Raëlianism? How did it start? Is the leader for real? How did aliens end up in the mix? Did the ex-racing car journalist really nick the whole religion from some obscure sci-fi writers? Is it weirder than Scientology? Are we going to have self-animated fur mops? Is there actually something in Raëlianism that makes sense?  YOU DECIDE!

*Disclaimer: We don’t claim to have any factual info about anything ever and for anyone who’s Bruderhof or Raëlian, soooooorrrrrryyyyyyyy J

Click now to get Eavesdroppin’ and hear how the pair think Russel Brand is going to be the next new GURU, how Michelle had a period leak on a date when she was a teenager, hear the pair wonder why big arses are in, the story of a woman with flipping butt implants and to hear Geordie say Tough Titties !
